I'm a fan of my brooks cascadia, but can't comment on that size!

As you know you have two issues. The size 15 can be hard and limits trail shoes down. Then the width is doubly hard because most trail shoes are covered with overlays bringing the shoe in tighter. There is no chance the Brooks Cascadia will fit your foot. You'll blow through the sidewall quickly. Great shoe but not great for your foot.

New Balance makes two shoes in your size and width. The Leadville and the 910v3. I kind of like the tread on the 910v3 better.

You might also look at the Altra Lone Peak 3.o and the Superior 3.0. Both come in your size and the toe box might work for your pinky toe.

I'm sure you do this but buy from a place that has a liberal policy

The new Altra King MT might also fit the bill.

the cascadias were going to be my first rec. so... moving on...
i've got a pair of leadvilles now that i'm pretty comfortable with. good tread when on dirt/mud. the cascadias were better on harder surfaces and if there was a significant amount of road/pavement in the run (and just as good on the trails). leadvilles could use a bit more cushion, imo - i suspect that when i'm done with this pair i'll go back to the cascadias.

can't say anything about the rainforest conditions though.

Damn, we've got Big Foot posting now.

I would check out Inov-8.

I'm very happy with my asolo reston. They are little beefier than a strict trail runner but not really heavy enough to be considered a true boot. Used heavily for a year and show pretty much no wear. My biggest issue is that lack a real stiff sole plate you you feel pointy rocks a little
